Ras-dependent activation of BMAL2 regulates hypoxic metabolism in pancreatic cancer

A. Curiel-Garcia, S. Holmstrom, C. Castillo, C. F. Palermo, S. A. Sastra, A. Andren, L. Tomassoni, Z. Li, T. LeLarge, I. Sagalovskiy, D. R. Ross, W. Wong, K. Shaw, J. Genkinger, H. Hibshoosh, , K. P. Olive

This study identifies BMAL2 as a KRAS-dependent regulator of hypoxic metabolism in pancreatic cancer, showing it stabilizes HIF1A and destabilizes HIF2A under hypoxia.

Spread of new mutations through space

K. Shaw, P. Beerli

This study investigates how population density affects the spread of new mutations through space using simulations, finding that neutral mutations decay over time while advantageous ones spread faster in dense populations.
